OWL Meeting with F&G
Thursday, August 25 at 7 pm at Theatre 150, 316 E. Matilija, Ojai will be the next meeting of OWL.
We will be joined by Lt. Mike Stefanak, the warden supervisor for the Ojai area, and Andrew Hughan, public information officer. In addition, Marc Kenyon, the DFG bear biologist, hopes to attend. Individuals from local wildlife organizations will also participate. We will be discussing exactly what lead up to and transpired during and after the issuance of a depredation permit to kill a bear on Public Lands and how to avoid such tragic outcomes in the future. We will also discuss the CA Bear Policy, what needs to change and how to do it. There will be information available on how to construct bear proof chicken coops and other bear proofing and bear aversion information.
There is no charge and it is open to the public. Please join us.
The two last “Bear Policies” are posted under ARTICLES on this site.
